Master Zhan, your daughter has gone out to catch ghosts again.

Chapter 183 Explanation

Wen Zijing had said she would teach Zhan Jinxi boxing, and the next day she rented a boxing training facility. It was currently closed for the holidays and no one was using it, so Wen Zijing rented it.

Zhan Jinxi then received a call from Wen Zijin, asking her to come over.

Zhan Jinxi got up, tidied himself up, and headed to the venue according to the address sent by Wen Zijin.

Upon arrival, she discovered that Zhan Guiting had secretly followed her.

"Uh... I didn't ask him to come." Zhan Jinxi was afraid that Wen Zijing would become estranged from him because of Zhan Guiting, so he quickly explained.

"I know how shameless he is." Wen Zijing glanced at Zhan Guiting and then ignored him.

Zhan Guiting looked at Wen Zijin with a smile on his lips.

He has some free time now, and he needs to listen to his daughter and hurry up and win Wen Zijin back, taking advantage of the fact that everyone is in a particularly good mood lately.

And so, Wen Zijing led Zhan Jinxi in practicing boxing, while Zhan Guiting sat aside watching, secretly learning any moves he had never seen before.

Before they knew it, it was noon. Zhan Guiting invited them to lunch. Wen Zijing was about to refuse when Zhan Jinxi said, "You two go ahead. I won't be a third wheel. I remember I have something to do this afternoon, so I'll be going now."

Before leaving, Zhan Jinxi gave Zhan Guiting a thumbs-up.

Come on, bro, win your sister-in-law back now!

The perceptive Wen Zijing naturally noticed this small detail, but she didn't say anything. Watching Zhan Jinxi's departing figure, she was about to leave as well, but Zhan Guiting grabbed her arm and said domineeringly, "You can't leave!"

"Why can't I leave, President Zhan? You're really funny. When did it become your place to decide my personal freedom?" Wen Zijing said speechlessly, pulling her hand back.

Zhan Guiting grabbed him again, pulled her along, and walked out with a cold face.

"Zhan Guiting, believe it or not, I'll slap you!" Wen Zijing struggled and shouted.

"I'll only believe it after I've tried it."

Holy crap, Wen Zijing was speechless.

It's only been three years, how come this guy's skin is thicker than the earth's core?

"Zhan Guiting! You bastard, let me go..."

Wen Zijin tried desperately to break free, but to no avail.

This man has an incredibly strong grip.

"Behave yourself, have a meal with me, and I'll never bother you again." The man opened the car door and roughly threw Wen Zijin into the car.

Hearing Zhan Guiting's words, Wen Zijing stopped struggling. Anyway, it was just a meal, and after that, they would part ways. That was fine.

Zhan Guiting took her to a restaurant, and once inside, she realized it was a couples' restaurant.

All the customers were in pairs, which made Wen Zijing feel quite awkward. What kind of couple were they? They were just each other's exes at best.

"Can't we just go to another one?" Wen Zijing asked.

"No!" The man was quite stubborn.

Wen Zijing suddenly saw a sign that read, "Couples only. Non-couples please do not disturb."

Damn, why does this store discriminate against single people?!

Fortunately, she and Zhan Guiting are neither husband and wife nor lovers, so she will most likely be kicked out.

"She's my wife."

Zhan Guiting took out the marriage certificate and smashed it on the front desk.

Wen Zijing was dumbfounded. She had almost forgotten that they had not yet gone through divorce proceedings, so legally they were still a married couple.

"Sit there." Zhan Guiting pulled Wen Zijing's hand and found a seat by the window.

When they used to go on dates, Wen Zijing liked to sit by the window.

This habit, as expected, hasn't changed.

"What do you want to eat?" the man asked.

"I don't know," Wen Zijin replied.

Zhan Guiting wasn't in a hurry to order. He put the menu aside and said with a smile, "Xiling Yiyao saved my mother and me. When I was ten years old, there was some business competition in the group. My father was too powerful and acquired and swallowed up many companies, which led to retaliation. She saved my mother and me. I have always only felt grateful to her and promised to grant her three requests, which she could make. That time, she cut her wrists and called me to go to the hospital to stay with her for one night. I went. I'm sorry, my phone was off and I couldn't tell you in time. When I got to the hospital, I immediately charged my phone and called you, but you didn't answer. I'm sorry that you had to take care of the triplets by yourself for one night."

"President Zhan, is there any point in bringing up these old stories now? What's done is done, and no amount of explanation will help. The damage has already been done," Wen Zijing said coldly.

Zhan Guiting sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Wen Zijing looked at the man in front of her. The young master of the Beijing circle, who was feared by the whole world, was actually begging for her forgiveness in such a humble way. She thought that he only knew how to force love in a domineering way.

Suddenly, Wen Zijing's phone rang, and the caller ID showed Ji Yuanlu.

"Hey... um..."

As soon as Wen Zijing answered the phone, Zhan Guiting sealed her lips with his.

The man held the back of her head with one hand, took her phone with the other, pressed the hang-up button, and deepened the kiss.
